Hello growers day 58 in the garden I gave her a bit of a leaf defo today still not purple some leafs have purple tips but that’s about it she has got some nice looking buds forming so we will see happy growing

Grüß Gott Growmies mit Verspätung die Woche 8 Die Blüten sind unglaublich fest und voll mit Harz! Das entfernen des Mainbud war definitiv eine gute Entscheidung wegen Platz nach oben. Auch muss ich die Pflanze gegen umfallen sichern so schwer sind die Buds.

They look fat i hope but will be heavy 😀

……

Needed a little cal mag. Moved the plants to a tent and I haven’t seen signs of needing to feed but it’s the 5th week so I added mutes at a weaker strength. Also started using molasses week 4 once or twice a week

💚 Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 5 | The Elegant Stretch Before the Storm Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Every week these ladies remind me why phenotype hunting is such an exciting journey. Today’s spotlight belongs to Amnesia Haze Auto – Pheno A, a plant that’s beginning to reveal the classic characteristics many growers hope to see from an Amnesia Haze. Tall… Graceful… Open… And now officially beginning her flowering journey. While many of her neighbours are building dense canopies, this lady has chosen elegance, creating a beautifully structured framework that should allow every future flower to enjoy plenty of light and airflow. ⸻ 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome! This entire project is being grown using my favourite experiment: 12/12 From Seed. From the day these seeds germinated, they have lived under a 12 hours on / 12 hours off lighting schedule. The goal isn’t simply producing smaller plants. It’s about discovering how different genetics and different phenotypes naturally express themselves under identical conditions. Every plant shares: • The same grow room • The same environmental conditions • The same lighting • The same nutrition • The same training philosophy • The same care Only the genetics decide how each individual develops. Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno A is already showing a wonderfully classic sativa-style expression. ⸻ 🌿 Stretching With Purpose At approximately 75 cm, she’s among the taller ladies in the room and continues displaying excellent vertical growth. Rather than producing a dense bush, she’s built long internodal spacing with beautifully stacked branches reaching confidently toward the light. Those longer distances between nodes might look sparse now, but for flowering they’re actually a huge advantage. Each future bud site has room to breathe. Each branch receives excellent light penetration. Each cola has space to develop without excessive crowding. Sometimes less density early on creates better flowers later. ⸻ 🌸 Flowering Has Officially Begun This week marks an exciting transition. Fresh white pistils are now appearing across every growing tip, confirming that flowering has officially begun. Although she’s entering bloom, she’s still carrying plenty of vegetative momentum. This is completely normal. During this transition period the plant continues stretching while simultaneously beginning flower production. Because of that, her feeding program still reflects both stages of growth. She’s no longer purely vegetative. But she’s not yet fully flowering either. She’s standing right in the middle of one of the most important phases of her life cycle. ⸻ 🍃 Gentle Leaf Tucking Instead of Heavy Defoliation Training this week remained very gentle. Rather than removing healthy leaves, large fan leaves were carefully tucked beneath developing branches to expose additional flowering sites. Leaf tucking is one of my favourite techniques during this stage because it increases light penetration while allowing the plant to keep all of her valuable solar panels. Healthy leaves continue producing energy. Hidden branches receive more light. The canopy stays open. It’s a simple technique, but one that often delivers excellent results. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Through the Transition Since the room currently contains plants at slightly different stages of development, the feeding program reflects that transition. Instead of switching immediately to a full flowering recipe, the plants are currently receiving a carefully balanced combination of vegetative and flowering nutrients. Current nutrition includes: • Plagron Terra Grow • Plagron Terra Bloom • Power Buds • Sugar Royal • Power Roots • Pure Zym • pH adjustment using pH Plus and Lemon Kick This balanced approach allows the plants to continue supporting vigorous green growth while simultaneously providing the phosphorus, potassium, enzymes and biological support needed as flowers begin to develop. It’s all about easing them smoothly into bloom rather than making an abrupt change. ⸻ 🌡️ A Stable Environment One advantage of documenting every phenotype separately is that each plant shares the exact same controlled environment. Current room conditions include: • Day temperature: 31.1°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 72% • Solution temperature: 21.6°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 636 ppm Keeping these parameters consistent allows each phenotype to express its true genetic potential without environmental fluctuations becoming part of the equation. ⸻ 📸 This Week’s Gallery The photographs this week beautifully capture the beginning of her transformation. The full-plant portraits highlight her elegant sativa structure, with long branches and an impressive central leader dominating the canopy. The close-up images reveal clusters of fresh white pistils emerging from nearly every node, confirming that flowering has truly begun. One of my favourite details is the clean spacing between branches. Rather than competing for light, every future cola has its own place to develop. The healthy green foliage, strong stems and open architecture suggest this lady is preparing for an exciting flowering stretch over the coming weeks. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead Over the next two weeks I expect this Amnesia Haze to continue stretching before gradually shifting her energy toward building flowers. If she follows the classic Amnesia Haze profile, those long internodes should soon begin filling with elegant, elongated buds covered in bright white pistils. The framework is already there. Now it’s time for the flowers to write the next chapter. I can’t wait to watch her evolve. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Watching every phenotype develop its own personality while sharing the exact same environment continues to be one of the most rewarding parts of this project. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing an incredible platform where growers from around the world can learn, inspire one another, and document every stage of their journeys. Zamnesia for providing the genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 🌱 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting these plants from seed to harvest. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the consistent light powering every day of this grow. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment where each phenotype can express its full genetic potential. And finally, Growers Love and thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, sharing knowledge and joining me on this adventure. Every plant has its own story, and Amnesia Haze Auto Pheno A is only just beginning to tell hers. The stretch is underway, the first flowers are forming, and the best is still to come. 💚🌿

I didnt pay much attention which plant turned out to be which, so I'm not too sure which plant is depicted on the pictures. They were all harvested within one week of one another. In total including hash, it was about 1.8 kilo dry weed on the scales:) They all tasted differently, but they were all very very tasty. Some were really earthy, others were fruity. Absolutely loved this grow.

If you don't follow my Instagram then you will have to read this portion. Lineage Breakdown: Pink Sugar Breath F1 created by UFO Genetics. Pink Sugar Breath: Platinum Kush Breath(IHG) X Pink Sugar Cookies(UFO) Pink Sugar Cookies: Sugar Cane(IHG) X Gsc Twister Pink Sugar Breath F2: Pink Sugar Breath Male(Funk/Purple Stems/Dumper) X Pink Sugar Breath Female(Pink Sugar Cookie Pheno) Bred by Me. I originally popped a good amount of these testers I created using a funk sugar breath male and a baker dough sugar breath with more of the pink sugar cookie lineage. This resulted in a pheno hunters dream. Each pheno develops massive amounts of resin. Green phenos imo are the best smokes SO far. They range from chemical og funk to og funk and dough. The purple pheno has more of a kush breath with sugary dough to it. Lastly is the pink pheno. The pink pheno develops amazing trichome production with all terps within the mom and pop. I originally popped these in x3 ran soil. They were broken in half. Overwatered. You fucking name it. I was stress testing this already herm vulnerable gsc twisted/ogkb hybrid. That being said the average grower should have minimum to none herm issues. 3 broke out batch but it was just a small trait from the vigorous stress I gave them. They developed high bract to leaf ratio with an intense sativa high. Growing these require 63 to 72 for a full expressions and an added body buzz with that kush breath high. 9/10. Flowering expect these to stretch 3x as big. They will need boosters/ extra feeding withing 17 days from flip. These are limited tested F2s. Only available @ [email protected]

4 days of flower. Everything looks great. The screen of Kush is 2cm lower, based on the slow grow. 80% light power

Monday It’s beginning of week 4 and they are doing pretty well. The main stems are hard and strong and it’s impossible to bend them at that point. I am practicing a very light hand LST everyday like I am showing in the video. Tuesday Watering for both of them , you can follow the (simple) process in the videos. The plants are doing great except for a little issue on one of them that I will show you tomorrow. Topping or not ? May be beneficial so I’m about to do it. Fiming maybe ? Thursday Topping on video ! Simple method

Graduated, and am off from work for a few weeks, so went overboard on photos. Plant is doing well, leaves are starting to turn yellow (strain trait). Can't wait for the harvest and being able legally gift my xmas ornaments to my cousins during our "cousins walk" at our family xmas party.

Week 3 flower day 16 the ladies are getting massive and tall, i knew i did a mistake veging them too long but no worries i hold my fingers that the wont starch more then they are, im very limited in height.. anyway the plants are very healthy and they are always hungry. The CO2 is like steroids for them I reach the easy to 2.2 and I know I can push even more. I’ll do it in the next weeks. After 21 days days i going for defoliation, I don’t want to do it now to stress the plans. I prefer to do it after this stretching finish. ** update week 3 day 19, i hade to raise up the light to to the ceiling of the growing tent, I was surprised how much slurricane#7 stretching.. I also unfortunately needed to do some super croping in week 3 it’s a bit risky but i had no choice some of the flowers reached the leds and the leafs got burned a bit..

Aggiornamento del 6/7/2026

Starting to get some nice purple colours on #4 buds and Ozz leaves! Not super visible on the video but looking really good. Also had an unpleasant surprise the other morning, due to wind gusts the support went out the pot and #4 straight bent to 90 degrees. Looks like it happened around 3/4am and I only saw it around 9am, so she got pretty roughened up but no actual damage to report. Same for Dorel, a brush fell on a lower branch but didn’t break anything. The learning here as it is the second time it happens, both time just before I water them: I suspect drier medium is less efficient in holding the plant when there is a lot of wind. Well well! In just 2 days she went from little purple to actually the whole plant changing color. Curious to see where it’ll go!

81th TOTAL GROW DAY, 40th BLOOMING DAY: Flushed suddenly down to 0,4, alternating with pure RO water, 0,03 or so. Dealing with a hot summer can't keep lower temps, sure there'd be more colours if temps were decreasing... But no complains at all, it's a fruity- skunky breath in the air.

This week has been a mixed bag for my two plants. #1 is really taking off now, showing strong growth and picking up speed!🌱 It’s looking healthy and vigorous, which is great to see. Towards the end of the week, I also noticed the first signs of flowering—exciting! Unfortunately, #2 is still struggling.😩 It has barely grown and remains very small compared to #1. If it doesn’t start making progress soon, I might consider replacing it with another plant. I’ll give it a little more time, but let’s see how things develop in the next week. Fingers crossed!🤞

Welcome to week 4 For Enigma in this Seedsman Tiny & Rare pot contest. After a bad start to week 3 she recovered well. Today I have added an air hose into her pot. It's run by a 5v 1w usb pump, connected to a 5v 2w solar usb panel. Using this I have been able to test the effectiveness of the light at different angles and ranges. The pump runs at full power within 30cm of the light. From there it slows rapidly down to 70 where it stops completely. I need a better light. Day 23: I have reconfigured the tent. I replaced the solar panel with a plug as I need the air to run when light is off too. My idea here is that if you can DWC with airstones, maybe if I blow air to her roots she can handle being in a saturated medium, thus allowing me to ensure she always has nutrition available. If it works as I hope, I may be able to have her exceed the size she might otherwise achieve in this pot. I have refilled the pot with fertigate every time the bubbles stop. There is no way its evaporating this fast. She has now been totally saturated for at least the last 6 hours and no drooping. Day 24: Been a bit lazy topping up her liquid but I'm confident the air pump is working as intended. Day 25: Enigma is on day 2 of a little dry-out experiment. Day 25.5 Enigma was wilting, so I fertigated her until the pot was full and then topped her up again twice. Day 26: Drowned her. Whoops. Day 27: Let her get too dry. Whoops. This is not easy. Day 28: End of week 4. Enigma suffering. It's difficult to get a balance between sufficient nutes and moisture levels.
